Where can you buy bjd

There are some companies that are no longer around that are still on the list. When you order from a distributor this means you are getting it from a third party that has permission to sell the doll from the company. Buying dolls from the second hand market can be rewarding and risky. You have a chance of finding dolls that are no longer in production or dolls that are cheaper than buying them brand new.

The risk comes in that there are recast dolls in the BJD market place. You also need to be cautious of who you are buying from and their reputation within the marketplace. Always look up feedback for sellers and ask for plenty of photos and full descriptions of the doll being sold. Skip to content There are 3 main ways to buy BJDs.

Are you choosing clothes that look pretty and want to have it up on display or are you looking for clothes that can go through some wear and tear? So in this case, cotton or polycotton fabric clothing would work the best, because these types of fabrics are easily cared for. You are going to want to buy clothes that are affordable and can be easily replaced. When creating BJDs for display purposes, there are different routes you can take- you can customize your doll with any type of clothes made of any kind of material.

There are many places that have very exclusive outfits and some are even limited edition. Another option is to get someone to custom make you clothes to fit the character of your display doll. Either route you take just be prepared to hand over some major cash. But if you sew the clothing yourself, you can drastically minimize your expenses. Unfortunately I was not blessed with the skills to make clothes for my dolls and I have to look to purchasing them instead.

Stores vary with their prices and even second hand clothing prices can differ too. Speaking of price ranges for BJD clothes, they can also vary depending on what size you are looking for. But the opposite can happen to where I have found cheaper items on Etsy than some name brand clothes.

So you already know to choose different clothing fabrics for different BJD uses and wonder where to find the clothing itself. On Etsy you can find tons of BJD artists over there, selling unique, handmade pieces of clothing. While the prices on Etsy range quite a bit, you can still find some discounts or low-priced sellers that still produce high-quality items. There is a great selection there and you can even find accessories on the site.

There are so many great online stores selling excellent pieces of BJD clothing. Especially look out for Facebook groups that have a marketplace section, where people are allowed to list their items for sale.

People in these groups usually want to get rid of the used clothing quickly and would offer fairly low prices. I actually created a Facebook group called BJD Addicts and there we have a second hand market and a feedback page too!

Another alternative to finding BJD clothes is to figure out what play dolls could fit your ball-jointed doll and then buying them. In order to find out what would work for you, I highly recommend you take the exact measurements of your BJD.
